Spider-Man, Daredevil and Hawkeye all sit across from the recently introduced Nick Fury. Silence fills the room for a moment, as they all awkwardly stare at each other. "Was that really necessary?" Spidey asks. "Yes, to keep our location a secret, we have to take every precaution necessary. We are a top level yet secret government agency and have been for over seventy years." Nick Fury answers keeping a straight face throughout. "Riiiight, so why is it you've kidnapped us then?" Clint questions, whilst staring him down. "Because we need your help. We intercepted this transmission coming from an untraceable location." Fury presses a button on the table and a hologram emits from the projector in the centre of the table. Fury presses a few more buttons and opens a voice file, he hits play. "Everything's been set, Otto should be receiving his package within the next few days, and then the world will finally feel his wrath once again." The voice file ends, and Spidey sinks in his chair. "That message was intercepted two days ago, meaning we haven't got long to intercept this package." Matt who sees Peter obviously upset, speaks up. "And why the hell didn't you bring this to our attention sooner! We could have done something earlier! If Doc Ock breaks out of The Raft who knows what kind of hell will break loose, do you remember what happened last year! Half of New York nearly exploded!" Matt slams his fist onto the table. "Mr. Murdock, I strongly advise you calm the fuck down right now." Fury stands up at this point and sternly looks at Matt. "Only if you start explaining!" Fury throws his hand out, telling Matt to sit. Matt sits, and Fury starts to explain. "Now, we have contacted The Raft, and alerted them. Their top priority right now is to stop and thoroughly search every single package that comes to The Raft. We have also sent them four of our top-level agents to protect Octavius' cell. Agent Johnson, Agent Morse, Agent Drew and Agent Wilson. Their goal is to stop anyone, even the prison guards from coming to check his cell. They are going to carry out the daily duties that are required. They will remain there for as long as needed, and hopefully they won't be too long as we try and figure out what and who is trying to break Otto out. This is where you lot come in, we believe who ever it is, is connected to the person behind the re-emergence of The Rivals gang and the team up of multiple villains. Whether that be Wilson Fisk, or someone else, we need you to find out who this person is."
Matt who seems to have calmed down, after hearing all of this looks over to his brother, Peter who seems to be okay now as well, Peter looks at Matt and nods, then proceeds to stand up and looks directly at Fury. "We can do that, as long as you promise me, that Otto stays locked up." "I can't make any promises" Peter slams both fists into the table, putting dents into them. "FUCKING PROMISE ME!" Fury, who seems to be a hard as nails man, flinches then looks Peter in the face. "I promise you, that Octavius won't escape." Peter slowly recedes back into his chair. "Now, do you have any information that you would like to inform us of?" Clint speaks up. "Uh yeah, we found boxes full of stolen tech. No Idea what they were using it for, maybe to sell or take apart and reuse for some new tech, I don't know but we were about to inform the local authorities about the tech so they could get it back to its rightful owners." Fury chuckles under his breath. "Local Authorities are about as useful as a chocolate teapot. I'm glad you brought this to our attention, we will pick it up and return it. Was there anything else?" The three men shake their heads. "Well, if you find out anything else, let me know. Here's my contact." He throws them all a pager each. "Just dial 616 and we'll come collect you from wherever you are. Now stand up so Hill can send you all home." "Okay, but you're not gonna knock us out again, are you?" Fury pushes them into the hallway and closes the door, as he does this Maria Hill appears in front them. "Close your eyes, this will take just a second" "Wait!" but as Spidey yells this everything goes black, and the next thing he knows he is back in his room inside the base. "I don't think I like them." He says as he gets up and leaves.
As Peter moves into the main room, he sees Jessica sat at her desk going over notes and some photos, he walks over to her. "What have you got there? Anything useful?" Jessica passes him a photo of Fisk meeting with Norman Osborn. "Not really, just pictures of Fisk meeting with important people. He hasn't really left his office at all." Peter puts the photo back down on her desk. "Okay, have you maybe thought of following up on the people he's meeting with, maybe their behind it? I highly doubt it's Norm, but it wouldn't hurt." Jess stands up and walks towards the door. "Maybe, we'll see. For now, I've got some paying work to do. Speaking of which, shouldn't you be working?" She says as she wraps her scarf around her neck. Peter rubs the back of his head. "Yeah, I should be but Jameson hasn't needed for a while, especially with the new hires but that's okay it's about time someone else's name was on the Daily Bugle." Peter goes and sits on the couch. "Alright, well I'll see you soon." "See ya!" Peter waves goodbye as Jess leaves. He grabs the remote and turns on the TV, as he's about to relax his phone starts to ring, it's an unknown number "Hello, Peter Parker speaking?" a familiar voice screams through the other side. "PARKER! GET YOUR ASS DOWN TO THE OFFICE NOW. I NEED TO TALK TO YOU RIGHT NOW." J. Jonah Jameson's voice echoes through the phone, Peter has to pull it away from his ear for a second. "Yeah, Okay JJ I'll be there soon." "HURRY!" Peter hangs up the phone, goes to his room and grabs his backpack, puts some clothes into it and leaves the HQ and swings towards The Daily Bugle office. He stops in the Alley and gets changed behind a bin, and walks inside.
"PARKER! I NEED A CO-HOST FOR THE BRAND-NEW WEEKLY DAILY BUGLE INTERNET NEWS SHOW, HOSTED BY YOURS TRULY. DO YOU KNOW ANYONE?!" Peter looks shocked. He goes to respond but gets cut off by Jameson. "I'M JUST KIDDING WITH YOU. HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE MY NEW CO-HOST?" Peter is taken a back. "Uh, I don't know what to say…. YES!" Peter says, without even thinking about what he just said he shakes JJJ's hand and leaves his office. 'I can't believe it, I'm going to host the NEWS?' Peter who isn't focused on his surroundings bumps into a woman with short orange hair, and green eyes and lots of freckles adorning he face and seem to be going down the rest of her body, she is carrying a pile of newspapers, as they bump into each other she drops them, and they all go flying. The woman and Peter both fall to the ground, Peter now back to reality instantly helps her up. "I am so sorry; I didn't mean to bump into you like that." The woman smiles "No it's okay, I wasn't paying attention, my brain was elsewhere." They both laugh and look down at the scattered newspapers. "I'll help you pick these up… I'm Peter by the way." He puts his hand out, she shakes it. "Ah, Peter Parker I've heard about you. I'm Mary Jane, you can just call me MJ" The handshake lasts a little too long as they stare at each other, about three seconds later they stop. "Right, well. I should be going. Hopefully I'll see you again soon" Peter says, as he starts to walk away, a hand touches his shoulder. He turns around to MJ. "Hey, I know we like just met but would you wanna go get a drink or something soon? Maybe say on Friday? I'm new to town and I don't have a lot of friends here, so I was hoping you could show me around and we could get to know each other." Peter's face falls from the smile he had to a slight frown, now thinking about Gwen. MJ notices this, "Oh, um. It's okay, we don't have to." Peter shakes his head, "No, no sorry. It's fine, I'd be happy to. How about we meet at the Brooklyn Bridge Bar on 74 Walt Whitman Drive say about six o'clock?" MJ smiles, "Sounds like a plan." Peter smiles and waves goodbye as MJ carries on with her work and Peter leaves the building. Peter walks through the street, thinking about what just happened. 'I can't believe I'm going to present a News show on the internet. Not only that, but I have a… date? With MJ. Is it a date? I don't know, I kind of hope it's not. Not that I don't find her attractive or anything, I just don't think I'm ready to move on from Gwen yet. I don't know. This is stupid, I shouldn't be worrying about all this right now. I need to get back to HQ and figure out who's behind this.' Peter quickens pace and goes into an alley, taking off his clothes, to reveal his suit underneath, he puts on his mask, throws his bag over his shoulder and swings away.
Peter arrives at HQ to find no one there; he walks into the main room which has all the lights out. He tries to turn them on, but it doesn't work. Suspicious of what's happening, he prepares himself as he walks into the room. He gets to the couch, where he sees a woman laying there, in a black spandex suit, with what seems to be a red hourglass symbol adorned on here belt. Peter immediately takes an offensive pose. "Who are you, and where are my friends" The woman stands up and walks around him, seductively running her hand around his back as she does so. "We can talk about that later, but right now. I have a message to deliver." She whispers into his ear as she pulls out a phone and shows video of Aunt May, cleaning the house. She then flicks to another one, a video of George Stacy, Gwen's dad doing paperwork at his desk in the precinct. "The Overseer wants you to know, if you continue meddling in his business, he can quite easily wipe out the people you care for." She puts the phone away and starts to walk off. Peter acting quickly attempts to web her, but she sidesteps. "You're too predictable, but don't worry. Your friends are fine, I didn't touch them. When the lights turn on maybe check your desk." She continues to walk out the door, and as she leaves the lights turn back on, and Peter walks over to his desk and finds a note. "Hey Pete, Matt, Clint and I are heading out to search some leads we found. We'll update you when we are done. Danny." Pete folds up the note and throws it onto his desk, he takes a seat and puts his hand on his face. "This day has been absolutely crazy." Peter stands up, walks to his room and passes out on his bed.
